Sleeping Spaces

We spend a third of our lives sleeping, so where we actually lay our heads for this vital activity deserves more than a passing thought. Sleeping Spaces shows how to create a calming sanctuary from the outside world -- a secluded spot to relax and revitalize for a full night's rest, a routine nap, or even the occasional stolen snooze. A beautiful collection of full-color photographs displaying perfect spots for dreaming and refreshing -- from living rooms to studios, traditional bedrooms to porches -- this practical and ethereal book shows how to decorate and style any area reserved for peace and slumber.Lisa Skolnik is the Chicago city editor for Metropolitan Life, and a nationally syndicated columnist and design and entertaining writer for the Chicago Tribune.
